Implementing Statutory Addition of Certain Per- and 
Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) to the Toxics Release Inventory 
Beginning With Reporting Years 2021 and 2022

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is updating the list 
of chemicals subject to toxic chemical release reporting under the 
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) and the 
Pollution Prevention Act (PPA). Specifically, this action updates the 
regulations to identify five per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) 
that must be reported pursuant to the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (FY2020 NDAA) enacted on December 20, 2019. As 
this action is being taken to conform the regulations to a 
Congressional legislative mandate, notice and comment rulemaking is 
unnecessary.

DATES: This final rule is effective August 17, 2022.

ADDRESSES: The docket for this action, identified by docket 
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-TRI-2022-0453, is available at

found at: https://www.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program/tri-covered-industry-sectors. To determine whether your facility would be 
affected by this action, you should carefully examine the applicability 
criteria in 40 CFR part 372, subpart B. If you have questions regarding 
the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the 
person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

B. What action is the Agency taking?

    EPA is codifying the five additional PFAS that were added to the 
EPCRA section 313 list of reportable chemicals (more commonly known as 
the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI)) since the last conforming rule 
pursuant to the FY2020 NDAA (86 FR 29698, June 3, 2021) (FRL-10022-
25)).

C. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    This action is issued under the authority of section 313 of the 
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) (42 U.S.C. 
11001 et seq.), section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) (42 
U.S.C. 13106), and section 7321 of the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (FY2020 NDAA) (Pub. L. 116-92, https://www.congress.gov/public-laws/116th-congress).

II. Background

A. What is NDAA section 7321?

    On December 20, 2019, the FY2020 NDAA was signed into law. Among 
other provisions, section 7321(c) identifies certain regulatory 
activities that automatically add PFAS or classes of PFAS to the EPCRA 
section 313 list of reportable chemicals. Specifically, PFAS or classes 
of PFAS are added to the EPCRA section 313 list of reportable chemicals 
beginning January 1 of the calendar year after any one of the following 
dates:
     Final Toxicity Value. The date on which the Administrator 
finalizes a toxicity value for the PFAS or class of PFAS;
     Significant New Use Rule. The date on which the 
Administrator makes a covered determination for the PFAS or class of 
PFAS;
     Addition to Existing Significant New Use Rule. The date on 
which the PFAS or class of PFAS is added to a list of substances 
covered by a covered determination;
     Addition as an Active Chemical Substance. The date on 
which the PFAS or class of PFAS to which a covered determination 
applies is:
    (1) Added to the list published under section 8(b)(1) of the Toxic 
Substances Control Act (TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.) and designated 
as an active chemical substance under TSCA section 8(b)(5)(A); or
    (2) Designated as an active chemical substance under TSCA section 
8(b)(5)(B) on the list published under TSCA section 8(b)(1).
    The FY2020 NDAA defines ``covered determination'' as a 
determination made by rule under TSCA section 5(a)(2) that a use of a 
PFAS or class of PFAS is a significant new use (except such a 
determination made in connection with a determination described in TSCA 
sections 5(a)(3)(B) or 5(a)(3)(C)).
    Under FY2020 NDAA section 7321(e), EPA must review confidential 
business information (CBI) claims before PFAS are added to the list 
pursuant to subsections (b)(1), (c)(1), or (d)(3) whose identities are 
subject to a claim of protection from disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 
pursuant to subsection (b)(4) of that section. Under the FY2020 NDAA 
EPA must:
     Review a claim of protection from disclosure; and
     Require that person to reassert and substantiate or 
resubstantiate that claim in accordance with TSCA section 14(f) (15 
U.S.C. 2613(f)).
    In addition, if EPA determines that the chemical identity of a PFAS 
or class of PFAS qualifies for protection from disclosure, EPA must 
include the PFAS or class of PFAS on the TRI in a manner that does not 
disclose the protected information.

B. What PFAS have been added to the TRI list?

    EPA has reviewed the above-listed criteria and found five chemicals 
that meet the requirements of this part of the FY2020 NDAA and whose 
identity is not claimed as confidential business information (CBI).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As stated above, under FY2020 NDAA section 7321(e), EPA must review 
CBI claims before PFAS whose identities are subject to a claim of 
protection from disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(a) (pursuant to 
subsection (b)(4)) are added to the list. The substance with the CAS 
No. 203743-03-7 met the criteria under FY2020 NDAA section 
7321(c)(1)(A)(iii), but was subject to a claim of protection from 
disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4) at that time. That substance's 
identity has since been published on the non-confidential portion of 
the TSCA Inventory in 2021; therefore, the chemical was added to the 
list.
    As established by the FY2020 NDAA, the addition of these PFAS to 
the EPCRA section 313 list of reportable chemicals is effective January 
1 of the calendar year following any of the dates identified in FY2020 
NDAA section 7321(c)(1)(A). Accordingly, four of these five non-CBI 
PFAS are reportable for the 2022 reporting year (i.e., reports due July 
1, 2023). One of the five is reportable for the 2021 reporting year 
(i.e., reports due July 1, 2022). A triggering activity under FY2020 
NDAA section 7321(c)(1)(A)(iv)(II) (i.e., a PFAS to which a covered 
TSCA section 5(a)(2) determination is made and designated as an active 
chemical substance under TSCA section 8(b)(5)(B) on the list published 
under TSCA section 8(b)(1)) occurred for this PFAS in 2020, but it was 
not identified in the conforming rule in 2021 (see Implementing 
Statutory Addition of Certain Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances 
(PFAS) to the TRI Beginning with the Reporting Year 2021 final rule (86 
FR 29698, June 3, 2021) (FRL-10022-25)). Due to the 2020 triggering 
activity, this PFAS was added by the NDAA effective January 1, 2021. 
This rule is conforming the regulatory text in the CFR to reflect this 
addition.
    EPA is issuing this final rule to amend the EPCRA section 313 list 
of reportable chemicals in 40 CFR 372.65 to include these five non-CBI 
PFAS added pursuant to the FY2020 NDAA.

III. Good Cause Exception

    Section 553(b)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 
U.S.C. 553(b)(B), provides that, when an agency for good cause finds 
that public notice and comment procedures are impracticable, 
unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, the agency may issue a 
rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. 
The EPA has determined that there is good cause for making this rule 
final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment because such 
notice and opportunity for comment is unnecessary. This action is being 
taken to comply with a mandate in an Act of Congress, where Congress 
identified actions that automatically add these chemicals to the TRI. 
Thus, EPA has no discretion as to the outcome of this rule, which 
merely aligns the regulations with the self-effectuating changes 
provided by the FY2020 NDAA.

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Additional information about these statutes and Executive orders 
can be found at https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations/laws-and-executive-orders.

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive 
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    This action is not a significant regulatory action and was 
therefore not submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for review

B. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)

    This action does not impose any new information collection burden 
under the PRA, 44 U.S.C 3501 et seq. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 
1320.3(b). OMB has previously approved the information collection 
activities contained in the existing regulations and assigned OMB 
control numbers 2070-0212 and 2050-0078.
    Currently, the facilities subject to the reporting requirements 
under EPCRA section 313 and PPA section 6607 may use either EPA Toxic 
Chemicals Release Inventory Form R (EPA Form 9350-1), or EPA Toxic 
Chemicals Release Inventory Form A (EPA Form 9350-2). The Form R must 
be completed if a facility manufactures, processes, or otherwise uses 
any listed chemical above threshold quantities and meets certain other 
criteria. For the Form A, EPA established an alternative threshold for 
facilities with low annual reportable amounts of a listed toxic 
chemical. The annual reportable amount is equal to the combined total 
quantities of the following waste management activities:
     Released at the facility (including disposed of within the 
facility);
     Treated at the facility (as represented by amounts 
destroyed or converted by treatment processes);

[[Page 42654]]

     Recovered at the facility as a result of recycling 
operations;
     Combusted for the purpose of energy recovery at the 
facility; and
     Amounts transferred from the facility to off-site 
locations for the purpose of recycling, energy recovery, treatment, 
and/or disposal.
    A facility that meets the appropriate reporting thresholds, but 
estimates that the total annual reportable amount of the chemical does 
not exceed 500 pounds per year, can take advantage of an alternative 
manufacture, process, or otherwise use threshold of 1 million pounds 
per year of the chemical, provided that certain conditions are met, and 
submit the Form A instead of the Form R. In addition, respondents may 
designate the specific chemical identity of a substance as a trade 
secret pursuant to EPCRA section 322 (42 U.S.C. 11042) and 40 CFR part 
350. OMB has approved the reporting and recordkeeping requirements 
related to Forms A and R, supplier notification, and petitions under 
OMB Control No. 2070-0212 (EPA Information Collection Request (ICR) No. 
2613.04) and those related to trade secret designations under OMB 
Control No. 2050-0078 (EPA ICR No. 1428.12).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers relevant to 
EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and displayed 
on the information collection instruments (e.g., forms, instructions).

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    This action is not subject to the RFA, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. The RFA 
applies only to rules subject to notice and comment rulemaking 
requirements under the APA, 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other statute. As 
discussed in Unit III., this rule is not subject to notice and comment 
requirements because the Agency has invoked the APA ``good cause'' 
exception under 5 U.S.C. 553(b).

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    This action does not contain any unfunded mandate of $100 million 
or more as described in UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538, and does not 
significantly or uniquely affect small governments. The action imposes 
no enforceable duty on any state, local, or tribal governments or the 
private sector.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This action does not have federalism implications, as specified in 
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). It will not have 
substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between 
the National Government and the states, or on the distribution of power 
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian 
Tribal Governments

    This action does not have tribal implications as specified in 
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This rule will 
not impose substantial direct compliance costs on Indian Tribal 
Governments. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this action.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental 
Health Risks and Safety Risks

    EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) 
as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern environmental 
health or safety risks that EPA has reason to believe may 
disproportionately affect children, per the definition of ``covered 
regulatory action'' in section 2-202 of the Executive order. This 
action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does not 
concern an environmental health risk or safety risk.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That 
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, because it is 
not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)

    This rulemaking does not involve technical standards. As such, 
NTTAA section 12(d), 15 U.S.C. 272 note, does not apply to this action.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental 
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations and 
Executive Order 14008: Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad

    The EPA believes that this action is not subject to Executive Order 
12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) because it does not establish an 
environmental health or safety standard. This regulatory action makes 
changes to the reporting requirements for PFAS that will result in more 
information being collected and provided to the public; it does not 
have any impact on human health or the environment. This action does 
not address any human health or environmental risks and does not affect 
the level of protection provided to human health or the environment. 
This action makes changes to the reporting requirements for PFAS which 
will provide information that government agencies and others can use to 
identify potential problems, set priorities, and help inform 
activities.
    Likewise, Executive Order 14008 (86 FR 7619, January 27, 2021) 
directs Federal agencies, as part of a Government wide approach to 
reduce climate pollution impacts on minority populations and low-income 
populations. However, the EPA believes that this type of action does 
not directly concern human health or environmental conditions and 
therefore cannot be evaluated with respect to potentially 
disproportionate and adverse effects on people of color, low-income 
populations and/or indigenous peoples. This action involves additions 
to reporting requirements that will not affect the level of protection 
provided to human health or the environment Although this action does 
not concern human health or environmental conditions, the information 
collected through TRI reporting will serve to inform communities living 
near facilities that report to TRI, and there is the potential for new 
information about toxic chemical releases and waste management 
practices occurring in those communities to become available through 
the TRI reporting data.

K. Congressional Review Act (CRA)

    This action is subject to the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., and the 
EPA will submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the 
Comptroller General of the United States. This action is not a ``major 
rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
